There were a few problems with the way we output "debug" messages. The first is that we used DEBUG() which is defined when NDEBUG is not defined, but NDEBUG will never be defined for kselftests because it relies too much on assert(). The next is that most of the DEBUG() messages were actually "info" messages, which users may want to turn off if they just want a silent test that either completes or asserts. Finally, a debug message output from a library function, and thus for all tests, was annoying when its information wasn't interesting for a test. Rework these messages so debug messages only output when DEBUG is defined and info messages output unless QUIET is defined. Also name the functions pr_debug and pr_info and make sure that when they're disabled we eat all the inputs. The later avoids unused variable warnings when the variables were only defined for the purpose of printing.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
